Work has brought me to Chattanooga, Tennessee. Are there any motorcycle related attractions or stores I should be sure to visit?

Chickamauga and Chattanooga Military Park

Not MC related but a very interesting and beautiful Park

Best,
Peter

Nightfall is downtown tonight, it is free and they have bands playing and food. They block off streets and have parking for bikes only, I have seen a couple of Guzzi's and Meridian Triumphs but mostly V Twin. Pandora's is up at the intersection of Hwy 153 and 58 north of town, they carry BMW/Triumph/Ducati and are good folks.

Hang gliding on the west side of Lookout Mtn. is another attraction that is really popular, actually in Georgia but just a few miles south on the west brow outside Trenton.

Lookout Mtn. is an attraction itself, Battle of Lookout Mtn. and many beautiful views of the valley below.

Do not forget the aquarium downtown and many good food establishments. Chattanooga has become a very popular destination and you should not have a problem finding things to do. Enjoy.

Seaquchie has the trials training school. May be some kind of event over the weekend. I've seen two world round trials events there. Beautiful area.

Grab a sailplane ride at Chilhowee Gliderport.

Beautiful soaring site. Thermal, ridge, and wave soaring. Great place for cross country and badge work or just a scenic ride. Located 5 miles north of Benton, TN on Hwy 411. Two hours north from Atlanta, GA and 1 hour northeast of Chattanooga, TN. Rental cabins all around the area as well as camping, etc.

Thank you for the good ideas. If work will just leave me alone, I will take advantage of all of your suggestions.
